Title: Flowmeter
IPC: G01F1/46
Filed: 1983-08-10
Abstract: A flowmeter having an elongate probe (2) is insertable into a stream of fluid flowing within a pipe (4) to extend across the stream. The probe (2) includes an internal chamber (10) to extend across the stream, an upstream facing surface (12) against which the said flowing fluid can impinge, and a plurality of impact ports (14) extending through said upstream facing surface to the internal chamber (10).

Title: Attachment for pressure vessel
IPC: F17C7/02
Filed: 1985-04-02
Abstract: A pressure vessel bulb 210 is screwed into a ring 282 of an attachment.

That inwards movement causes a valve 250 and a piercer 222 carried by the valve to move towards, and pierce the valve. The released fluid pressure closes the valve and the pressure in a chamber 288 causes a sealing piston 284 to be moved towards the bulb to compress and enhance the seal provided by an O-ring 218 located between the bulb and the sealing piston. Several embodiments are described. <IMAGE>

Title: Video processing for storage or transmission
IPC: H04N7/26
Filed: 1995-08-25
Abstract: A method of processing digital video information in real time involves reading-in digital data representing pixels of successive video frames, e.g., from a digitizer. The pixel frame data is initially stored and subjected to an idealization treatment to choose and pre-select representative values for pixel characteristics which are then adopted in the further processing. The idealized frame data can then be subjected to compression by deriving further data representing blocks of pixels (mini-blocks) and blocks of mini-blocks (super-blocks) and by generating code words to describe the changes in the pixel data of successive frames. The compressed data is finally stored and/or transmitted.

Title: Methods for the regulation of plant fertility
Inventor: MO YINYUAN
IPC: C12N15/83
Filed: 1993-03-05
Abstract: Plants in which flavonol activity has been impaired are conditionally male fertile (CMF), and male fertility can be rescued or restored by providing fertility restoring flavonols at pollen sites in the plant. Although viable pollen is produced by flavonol deficient plants, pollen germination and tube growth are severely reduced both in vivo and in vitro, resulting in plants which are self sterile. However, by contacting pollen of the plant with an amount of a fertility restoring flavonol effective to enhance germination of the pollen, full pollen germination and tube growth may be restored. Useful fertility restoring flavonols include compounds of the formula:   <IMAGE>   wherein R1, R2, R3, R4, R5, R7, and R8, are hydrogen, hydroxyl or alkoxy having from 1 to 3 carbon atoms. Particularly preferred flavonols include galangin, kaempferol, iso-rhamnetin, quercetin and morin.
